Geocache Description:

The cache is in an ammo can

The Owl Creek site consists of five mounds arranged around a central open area. Mound I & II are publicly outlined, whil III, IV & V are on private land. The mounds were described in 1805 by Dr. Rush Nutt, an early traveler through the area. He wrote that all 5 mounds were flat on top. Today, only Mound I remains close to its prehistoric appearance. As late as the 1860's the mounds were plowed and planted, changing the shape and size. The county road also widened, cutting away part of the Mound V.
